Writers from Emily Dickinson to Edith Wharton to Eudora Welty have found their gardens to be wellsprings of sensory experience that stimulated their writing. In this May 17 Native Plant Trust two-hour workshop, visit the fields and designed gardens at Nasami Farm in Whately and write spontaneously in response to prompts—verbal or visual cues provided by the workshop leader—inspired by the surroundings. No previous writing experience required. Please bring a notebook, pen or pencil, and water, and dress for the weather. Instructor Jane Roy Brown leads, and the fee is $26 for NPT members, $32 for nonmembers. Register at www.nativeplanttrust.org.
